The Hebrew word for "poured out" is "שָׁפַךְ" (shaphak), which often denotes the act of spilling or shedding, as in the shedding of blood. This imagery suggests a total depletion of strength and vitality, akin to water that has been spilled and cannot be gathered again. Historically, this can be seen as a prophetic reference to the suffering of Christ on the cross, where He was physically and emotionally drained, fulfilling the messianic prophecy.<p><b>and all my bones are disjointed</b><br />The phrase "all my bones are disjointed" speaks to a profound physical agony. The Hebrew word "פָּרַד" (parad) means to separate or scatter, indicating a state of being pulled apart. This could be understood as a metaphor for extreme distress or as a literal description of the physical torment experienced during crucifixion, where the body is stretched and bones can become dislocated. This imagery aligns with the historical accounts of crucifixion, further emphasizing the prophetic nature of this psalm in relation to Jesus' suffering.<p><b>My heart is like wax</b><br />The heart, often seen as the center of emotion and will, is described here as being "like wax," suggesting a state of melting or dissolution. The Hebrew word "דָּוַג" (dawag) implies a melting or softening, which can symbolize overwhelming fear or sorrow. In the context of Christ's passion, this phrase captures the intense emotional and spiritual anguish He endured, as His heart was burdened with the weight of humanity's sin.<p><b>it melts away within me</b><br />Continuing the metaphor of wax, the phrase "it melts away within me" conveys a sense of inner collapse or despair. The Hebrew "מוּג" (mug) means to dissolve or faint, indicating a profound internal weakening. This can be seen as a reflection of the emotional and spiritual desolation that Christ experienced, feeling abandoned and crushed under the burden of His sacrificial mission. This imagery resonates with the historical and scriptural accounts of Jesus' agony in the Garden of Gethsemane and His cry of abandonment on the cross.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/psalms/22.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(14) The state of hopeless prostration into which the victim of these terrible foes is brought could not be more powerfully described. It is a state of entire dissolution.
